Port Fishermen's Mission reaches out to families needing extra support

George Ayoma Fishermen’s Mission Port Officer said: “We know how difficult life is at the moment.

“We also know that asking for help is never easy.

"Today I am appealing to fishermen, to their wives and partners and to wider members of fishermen’s families, who are facing difficulties, to make a call to the Fishermen’s Mission.

“We are always here to listen and give practical guidance.

"The support we can give you may make all the difference. Together, we can get through this crisis, so do not hesitate, call us today.”

The mission may also be able to access further financial support and grants specifically to help families and fishermen’s children."

“Working alongside other maritime charities, the Fishermen’s Mission can access bespoke funding and means of support that are not available elsewhere, particularly for fishermen’s children," said George.

"Many fishing families with children have already contacted us for support so please do not struggle through this crisis on your own. Pick up the phone and give us a call, we are here to help you and your family.”
